I think I have found the problem though.  I was running the system without swap and with 64Megs of RAM.  I added around 20 megs of swap space and did the
configure again and it worked fine.  I am actually compiling now and will let the status be known if it completes or not.  As of right now everything looks
like it is working fine with the swap enabled.

I suspect that's not the problem, though. 64 MB of RAM should not be exhausted
that fast.

I saw lots of similar oopses on the NEC DDB Vrc-5074 with various 2.3.x
kernels. Other people reported similar oopses with other machines. And the
common factor is the R5000.

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
